Colts ILB Jerrell Freeman left Sunday's Week 7 game against the Bengals with a hip injury, but later returned.

Freeman, who had been battling a hamstring injury over the last few weeks, only missed a series or two. He was part of a defense that held Cincy to 27 total yards in the first half before leaving. Sun, Oct 19, 2014 03:10:00 PM

Colts ILB Jerrell Freeman (hamstring) is active for Week 6.

Freeman barely practiced this week, but is playing through a questionable tag after escaping without setbacks in his Week 5 return. Thu, Oct 9, 2014 08:03:00 PM

The Colts expect ILB Jerrell Freeman (hamstring) to return in Week 5 against the Ravens.

It would be a boost to Indianapolis' run defense. Freeman is also used extensively in the Colts' pass-coverage schemes and is a starter in IDP leagues. Mon, Sep 29, 2014 03:49:00 PM

The Colts will also be without DL Arthur Jones (ankle). With Checkdown Charlie Whitehurst expected to be under center this week, the Titans might want to try feeding Bishop Sankey after he turned 10 carries into 61 yards last Sunday. Or they could keep "limiting" Sankey due to his allegedly imperfect "footwork." Fri, Sep 26, 2014 01:37:00 PM

The Indianapolis Star reports the Colts "aren't giving up" on Vick Ballard (Achilles', out for season), and that he'll get "another shot" in 2015.

We'll see. Ballard was already talent-deficient before injuries wiped out his 2013-14, and he'll be a 25-year-old former fifth-round pick come next July. Ballard has averaged 3.9 yards on 224 career carries. He has no Dynasty value.

ESPN's Mike Wells doesn't see any way the Colts can repair their relationship with Trent Richardson.

Richardson is owed a guaranteed $3.18 million, but the Colts can void his salary due to a team-imposed suspension. He remains a strong candidate to be cut despite a looming NFLPA battle. Releasing Richardson would leave Dan Herron, Zurlon Tipton, and Vick Ballard as the Colts' only running backs.
